nice set up im looking into the same comp.
northern tools has it for $2289.99 with
free shipping

It's an awesome compressor.

I urge you to shop around though, as I did.

There are 2 models, one with and one without an alternator. $1999 and $2199 in my Northern 2008 Hardcover Fall & Winter Master Catalog. (Lift gate delivery to your driveway is usually not included in their free freight offers.)

I bought the one without the charging system because I ran cables from the compressor to my TB 302 battery for starting duties. Since the TB will handle keeping the battery charged, there is no need to spend a couple hundred extra dollars on something not needed.

man thats a good lookin trailer! and good lookin dog too! whats the purpose of a compressor? not to sound dumb but why would you need one on a welding trailer? ive seen them lot latley on service repair trucks... just curious what you guys use the air for.. tools? gougin? etc?

Since this is something I do in my spare time, I chase whatever pays me well. I can do any process in any position, so I tend to not shy away from much. I am not a pipe fitter though, nor do I pretend to be. I have no certs in pipe. Most of what I do at work is plate, structural members, and repair. Steel, aluminum, and armor plate.

There are only 2 advantages to a trailer that I know of. First being cost. A trailer is much cheaper than a truck.

Second advantage is being able to drop the trailer at a SECURE worksite and leave for supplies, lunch, whatever, without having to tear your set up down only to set everything back up once you return to work.
